EAUT1934
Engine trouble warning light“”
This warning light flashes or stays on if
an electrical circuit monitoring the en-
gine is not working correctly. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
self-diagnosis system.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds, and then go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
EAU11872
Tachometer The electric tachometer allows the rider
to monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the ta-
chometer needle will sweep once
across the r/min range and then return
to zero r/min in order to test the electri-
cal circuit.NOTICE
ECA10031
Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer red zone.
Red zone: 10000 r/min and above

riding speed)


an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)

two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)


a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)


a fuel meter
TIP

Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “RESET/ SELECT”
button.


For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter displays between kilometers
and miles, press the “RESET/SE-
LECT” button for at least eight sec-
onds.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
A brief push (less than one second) on
the “RESET/SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2” in the following
order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → ODOWhen approximately 1.6 L (0.42 US
gal, 0.35 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the odometer display will au-
tomatically change to the fuel reserve
tripmeter mode “F-TRIP” and start
counting the distance traveled from that
point, and the last segment of the fuel
meter will start flashing. In that case,
pushing the “RESET/SELECT” button
switches the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter and odometer modes in
the following order:
F-TRIP → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → ODO →
F-TRIP
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “RESET/SELECT” button briefly
(less than one second), and then push
the button again for at least three sec-
onds while the selected tripmeter is
flashing. If you do not reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter manually, it will reset it-
self automatically and the display will
return to the prior mode after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi).Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last fuel meter
segment starts flashing, refuel as soon
as possible.
